How to lower your heart rate?!

Question: How to lower your heart rate?

Im 15 in highschool an i have a oral speech coming up, nothing big only 30 people, But I get nervous and my heart rate sky races and it goes bum bum bum bum and feels like it could pump outa my chest. So what can I do to lower when it speeds up. Sleeping pills? Breath? what?

Also if I drink before Will it take the edge of not enough to get wasted no just a shot or two or whiskey before?

Answers:

This is known as situational anxiety. It's fairly common before an exam or a big speech. You could see if your GP would be willing to prescribe you a beta-blocker -propranolol would be a rational choice. It will ease some of the physical symptoms of anxiety (e.g. fast heart rate, etc).

Beta-blockers aren't suitable for everyone. They are contraindicated in asthmatics for example.

Silly as is....sometimes masturbating can help relax and calm your nerves. So maybe try that before, if you can :p

Try meditation.its a bit boring at first but use the force & soon you will be as powerful as me.Lol !
